Advantages

Homogeneous Architecture, Consistent Experience

Based on the Huawei Cloud QingTian architecture, CloudPond provides you with a truly consistent experience. The running environment, network, and management system are consistent at the edge and on the cloud. In addition, edge sites share the same VPCs with the cloud, making it easier for cloud resource provisioning and data transmission.

• A distributed network: The edge-cloud distributed network seamlessly connects the on-premises network to the cloud network.

  The edge AZ where the edge site resides is connected to the central AZ through edge gateways and shares the same VPC as the central AZ.

  

• Consistent running environment: The APIs, instances, and service specifications are consistent as those used on the cloud.

  

• A management system: The edge uses the same management system as the cloud for multi-grain permission control and resource management. The edge and the cloud use the unified management console.

  

Pay-per-Use Cloud Services

With CloudPond, you can run cloud services locally, such as Cloud VR, MRS, and DWS, and pay for only what you use, meeting your requirements for service innovation at the minimal cost.

Local Data Processing and Storage

CloudPond provides you with a pool of compute and storage resources and allows you to run cloud services locally. With CloudPond, you can process and store data that needs to be retained locally. You can access on-premises resources over a private network. This makes data interconnection easier.

Fully Managed Infrastructure

The racks delivered to your premises are managed and maintained by Huawei Cloud. You do not need to concern about the operation and maintenance of the IT infrastructure and can spend more time and money on service innovation.

• Simplified architecture: There is no independent local management node. The architecture is more lightweight than traditional software products.
• Integrated delivery: Compute and storage resources are delivered to your premises using standard racks and are ready to use within 2 days after being delivered to your premises.
• Periodic upgrades: Software and cloud services used at edge sites are managed using a unified O&M platform and upgraded on a regular basis.
• Managed O&M: The Huawei Cloud O&M team provides onsite O&M for the racks delivered on your premises and replaces faulty hardware on site.

You only need to undertake the O&M of your equipment room, and you do not need a staffed and skilled IT team.
